The Budos Band, 'Origin of Man' - Video Premiere

Staten Island's funk-soul brothers the Budos Band set out into the faux-deserts of Shaolin -- decked in cloaks, no less -- to bring 'Origin of Man' to life. Matt Rogers and Luke Stiles set the Afro-Latin jam to the series of deadly assassinations, replete with a reappearing scorpion -- the symbol for their latest album, 'The Budos Band II.' "We narrowly avoided lock-up when the cops showed up on Staten Island's beach," Baritone Saxophonist Jared Tankel tells Spinner. "We faced an interrogation as to why we were dressed in cloaks, chasing each other around with knives and a pet scorpion." Enjoy the video in all its lo-fi glory, exclusively on Spinner.
